About Jane
BACP. Four years' experience. Jane Kelly works with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and life changes using person-centred and other talking therapies.
Jane Kelly offers counselling from a client-centred stance. She prioritises the person's perspective and listens for what matters most to them. Sessions focus on talking through feelings, making sense of painful events, and finding practical ways to cope day to day.
Her practice addresses common concerns such as low self-esteem, depression, parenting stress and career worries. She also works with people grappling with family conflict, separation and bereavement. Sexuality and LGBT issues are included among her areas of focus.
Jane uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. Narrative work is used to examine the stories people tell about themselves and to try out different meanings. Solution-focused techniques help set clear, manageable goals between sessions.
She aims to build a respectful working relationship where the client leads the pace and topics. Sessions are conversational and grounded in everyday language rather than technical terms. The focus is on what can be done next and what feels workable for the person in front of her.
Jane practices in the United Kingdom and works in English. Her BACP credential is provided as listed.
How her approaches are used in remote counselling
Jane draws on client-centred and attachment-based approaches in remote work. Client-centred counselling means the client leads the topics and pace, while the counsellor listens and reflects to help clarify feelings and priorities. Attachment-based work looks at how past relationships shape current patterns and can help with trust, communication and recurring conflict.She also uses solution-focused techniques to set short-term goals and identify small, practical steps that fit into daily life. These methods are suited to issues such as anxiety, coping with life changes and relationship strain because they keep sessions concrete and action-oriented.
Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be decided together. The counsellor will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and suggest which methods to emphasise. This is a collaborative decision and can be reviewed as work progresses.
Confirm the current session formats before booking. The practical benefits of remote counselling include easier fitting of sessions into work and family routines, reduced travel time and the option to choose quieter surroundings that suit you. Some formats may also allow shorter check-ins or sessions without video when that is more practical. Registered or accredited professionals often offer remote options to make attendance simpler; check the available formats when you book to ensure they meet your needs.
